That's what it's all about!

The past couple of weeks we had some awesome projects at Coccadotts. Very challenging but fun. However, every time I make something like that...I rarely see the customers when they pick it up.
Not today.
Today I even have a picture of the person that it was for, smiling while holding his cake. And that's what it's all about, isn't it?

This cake was ordered yesterday ...for today. I freaked out a little when I saw what a big project it is ( and I still had other stuff to finish) but the project was very appealing and I am glad I had the opportunity to work on it.

So, Matt O'Connor and I created this for Frank Adams Jewelers. 

I am so lucky to work with so many talented and cool people! Thanks, Matt for all you do!

On such a short notice...and such a big cake ( take a look at it compared to my hand), we are having tons of fun! :-)

 Oh, and the handles of the watch are raised too, in case you are wondering :-)

Ta-Ta for now,

Annie

Why?

I feel compelled to share something, because people keep asking me why I am not publishing things as often as before.

Ok, here it is.
You all know I got a job ( hence all the cakes) but I haven't commented the fact that I started my Masters degree as well.  I have TONS of materials and pictures to publish but I'm so stressed with all the engagements I have that I can barely find time to check my e-mail, let alone post anything.

While I am deeply sorry about that, I am working on finding somebody to help me out with editing and maybe posting the content that is just piling up.
If any of you are interested, let me know too.
So, bare with me, I'm doing my best and posting as often as I possibly can.  I'm not giving up on the blog, on the contrary I have a lot of things that are just waiting to be on, I'm working on art as well, but I have just so many hours... as all of you.

And now a LOT of things from the bakery that I have been working on the past months.
